Transcription factors (TFs) are prominent regulators of gene expression in plants. Several
TFs are now well known to participate in controlling various plant-specific processes
including secondary metabolite biosynthesis. TFs play a crucial role in the regulation of key
genes of various secondary metabolic pathways, including the biosynthesis of the alkaloids.
The plant-derived alkaloids have significant applied aspects in the cosmetic, industrial, and
pharmaceutical sectors. The alkaloids are present in a meager amount in plants, which is …
